It’s really hard to believe that the big one and nemesis were built in the same year. Totally different eras of roller coasters.
Shockwave (Intamin standup) was also built in 1994!
I just commented this on another video.
Nemesis still feels modern to this day, B&Ms age much better imo, like fine wine
As much as i love the Big One and it's a big part of my childhood and I'll always hold a special spot for it I can't help but think what kind of B&M they could have built with all that room
@@iitzfizz Not all of them do (looking at you, Dragon Khan) but Nemesis totally holds up, still one of the best. The fact that is is a bit more blunt and less refined than newer B&Ms (compare and contrast Black Mamba) gives it an edge that others lack.
Probably the most underrated line up in the uk
It’s such a fantastic amusement park!
Amazing I can’t wait to do icon I’m soo exited to go on it for the first time
Yes.
Fantasy Island also looks quite good with Oddysey and Millenium
@@Milani-qe7jp fantasy island is an odd one because they’re two great coasters but it’s more of a fairground than an amusement park! It’s built around/over a fully functioning market!
i first went to this park when i was 6 10 yrs ago, and went again for the opening week of ICON, and ive got to say this park is underrated and deserves more attention throughout the world. Hopefully we get some new attractions throughout the next decade to boost this park to its full potential.
This park is really good for pacing so many rides in such a small area. Black pool pleasure beach says, who needs to expand when you can find a way to work with what you got. This park is like the UK Gröna Lund.
Grand National number one for me, the track layout and the racing theme is just so... erm, iconic.
Grand national supremacy!!!
So lucky to have Blackpool pleasure beach on my doorstep!
It’s such a fantastic park. We can’t wait to return!
that first drop on Big One looks straight up illegal on the back row xD
It's brutal and honestly, it sucks
The big one is definitely best on the back but most people don’t know that and take ages to queue up for the front
When you put the big one below revolution I was initially shocked but then when I thought about it I completely agree, the big one is a brilliant ride and obviously a classic to the pleasure beach but I think after the first drop it’s sort of just a long dragged out ride, whereas revolution is really the only ride I genuinely get nervous to go on and the wait to go backward is so intense!
Agreed: nothing much really happens after that first drop. If there was a loop at some part of it it'd be a different story!
I have to disagree you just go forward and backward on revolution the big one is far superior at least for me
Icon is by far my favourite Coaster!
When I last went, I forgot how rough the coasters were but Icon was one of the smoothest ones I’ve EVER been on
It’s such a fantastic ride. We love it!
I've been going Blackpool since I was young I've watched almost every ride come and go But Icon lives up to its name
When you rank a kiddie coaster over an SLC
Probably a nostalgic ride for him and it was probably my first coaster so I agree with him it's a great starter, but I'm not sure it beats Infusion
Thank you Shaun for this amazing video! Now I now which Rollercoaster is the best! Hats off for your effort and hard work in making these videos! Keep rocking Shaun!!!!😊😊😊😊
Another great video as always Shawn, you're a legend. I've never been to Blackpool Pleasure Beach before so I'm definitely going to visit this year for the first time. :)
Love it, great video i have been waiting for this :)
Hopefully will be able to visit this awesome park soon, great vid as always Shawn
Honestly grand national should get an gci retrack, but one with the old school style trains to make it still feel old in an charming way
Ah man, Hannah and I would love to meet up with you and Charlotte for a day in any theme park. We’re discovering these parks are a hidden joint hobby of ours. You two are inspiring. We just wish our friend groups were also into theme parks!
Love watching your videos, keep up the fantastic work! 👍
After this video ended, an advert for ASOS played with the ad's title being "Shop the icons". Coincidence? I think not!
That’s crazy!
Google algorithm failure lol
Congratulations Shawn for 250,000 subscribers :)
Thank you very much Jacob!
When I heard infusion I said "burn it"
But when I heard 2007 I was like "dont burn it, give it a non painful death"
I was born in 2007 and I have vowed to like every theme park ride opened in that year
Went pleasure beach to ride my first ever rollercoasters last week. Went straight on the big one- what a ride! Went on infusion as well. My mate told me to put my head right back just like you said and I’m very glad I did. Not a great one. Very excited to go to Alton towers hopefully next year, but loved blackpool. Live in Preston, so it’s very nearby.
OMG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO
Thanks for watching!
Love Blackpool pleasure beach and Thorpe park those 2 are my favourite theme parks in the UK can't wait to go back to these theme parks again to have a thrilling time of my life
Great video I’d love to see you do a remembering the old southport pleasureland!
Thanks for my daughter Islas video on Sunday. She loved it as expected 👍🏻👍🏻
Hi Shawn I am going to Blackpool later this year in August because my trip to Florida was cancelled but can't wait to get back on Icon
Have a fantastic time!
Same
But my trip was lanzorotte
That’s the same with me, my trip was cancelled to Australia so we are going to Blackpool in a couple days from now, I’m so excited to go onto the icon
Haven’t done any of them yet but I’m certainly looking forward to getting out there hopefully this year to ride them classic woodies. They may be getting rough now like everyone says but they’re classics and the park wouldn’t be the same without them
Where would Wild Mouse have been on this list Shawn? When i rode it i thought I was gonna die i swear it came off the track at one point 😂😂
I loved it, favourite woodie at the park!
Went yesterday. Didn't managed to get onto Icon, and my sister refused to go onto Revolution so we gave that a miss too! But I have to say my favourite was The Big One. I agree with Revolution, my arms were aching after getting off from being ragged around so much.
Can't wait to see this!
Infusion is an awful ride, but I love the off ride look. I would gaze at it in awe as a child, wondering what it is like to be flipped upside down. When I finally rode it, I wish I hadn’t. Not even worth the credit
To put things into perspective:
Pleasure Beach opened in 1896
Oblivion opened 98 years later
Ghost Train opened in 1930
Drayton Manor opened 20 years later
Flying Machine opened in 1904
The Flume opened 77 years later
Wild Mouse (RIP) opened in 1958
Wicker Man opened 60 years later
Big Dipper opened in 1923
Smiler opened 90 years later
Revolution opened in 1979
Corkscrew (and Alton Towers as a major theme park) opened 1 year later
Really shows the age and history of the PB and how long it’s been open for!
Oblivion is 102 years older
Icon is a fantastic ride.Been on it loads of times,and is my favourite UK coaster.However I love Infusion.I love the anticipation going up the lift hill and the turn after the lift always kills my stomach.The Big One is ok,but after the first drop it is boring with no intensity or airtime.I agree that The National had got really rough.
Infusion is better than Icon. Icon is just too slow.
Yes! Now this is History!
I visited Southport and rode Infusion, or Traumatizer as it was known then, when I was about 13. It was my first ever looping coaster and it scared the pants off me, but I’ve been a thrill seeker ever since! I rode it again in Blackpool a couple of years back and it was nowhere near as good somehow. Just seemed harsh and rough in comparison with how it was at Southport. Maybe it’s an age thing but I think there’s more to it than that and it just didn’t handle being dismantled and put back together in a new location perhaps.
I was so excited to get on infusion for the first time and I came off of it with a really bad head ache and my ears were hurting I was so disappointed. I agree with icon being first it’s my second fav coaster in the uk behind the smiler. Great video Shawn
I agree with your list shawn for all the same reasons but revolution was the shock! Id put the big one as no 2. As for infusion it needs the new restraints to make me want to ride it again! It makes jubilee at fantasy island feel smooth!
I've been going Blackpool since I was young I've seen almost every ride come and go but Icon lives up to its name. Everytime I go I say I want to ride Icon
Love the vid guys
I'm planning a trip to the Uk for Alton Towers and Thrope and Blackpool is the one I'm most excited for! It looks like an amazing place!
10)Steeplechase

6)Infusion (front row only)
5) Avalanche

Great list!
1).The Big One. (The drop and views are just too good to not be number 1).
2). Icon
3). Valhalla (if it ever bloody opens)
4). Grand National - especially now it’s been re-tracked. Best woody in UK
5). Revs
6). Big Dipper
Great vid I remember when I got stuck on the Big Dipper going up the main climb ahah I pooed myself
I like your ranking for this park Shawn good job
Blackpool definitely has a great variety of coasters. Icon is probably my favourite.
Big One has got to be number one. The true icon of the park. But it wouldnt be top of the list if a certain rodent was still flying round the tracks!
Lmao.... I sometimes wish that I'd had the chance to experience that certain rodent...
We miss Wild Mouse so much!
Congrats on 250k btw🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for your support!

We love Pleasure Beach!
You’re a legend mate 😂👍. My list goes a bit more like this but i agree with everything you say. Mine is the viewpoint of not a mega enthusiast so its more based on how likely i am to ride each one:
1) Grand National
2) Icon
3) The Big One
4) Revolution
5) Big Dipper
6) Nickelodeon Streak
7) Steeplechase
8) Infusion
9) Avalanche
10) Blue Flyer
Revolution is still a launch coaster I think as a push is still a launch just like a cable launch pulls you forward revolution pushes you forward/ backwards
At the moment as I haven't visited since 2013 my favourite ride is revolution. Always loved how forceful it is 😍
Best park in the UK (imo) hope they can top ICON! But it will be hard!
My ranking:
1.ICON
2. The Big One
3. Revolution
4. Big Dipper
5. Nick streak
6. Avalanche
7. Grand national (higher if worked on)
8. Blue Flyer
9.Steeple chase
10. Infusion
Great list!
This is my list from being young, turning older then going on bigger rollercoasters. Blue flyer- steeplechase- avalanche- Big Dipper, Roller coaster- grand National- revolution- icon- big one
great video👍‼️‼️
I'm in Blackpool this week, and have done all the coasters, so here is my 2022 rank.
1. Icon - Hands down the best coaster I've ever been on, so smooth while keeping the speed and intensity. Love the launch, love the inversions, love the two parts to it, just love everything about it. Miles ahead of everyrthing else in the park
2. The Big Dipper - An absolute classic. I was on this yesterday and actually clapped at the end of it, such a fun ride, and given its so old, quite the achievement
3. Grand National - The first coaster I ever rode back in the 80s. A little rough in places, but the racing dynamic is still great, and the dips are fantastic. Great speed too.
4. Infusion - Gets a lot of bad press, but I love it. It's a little short, it's a little bumpy, but overall the most intense ride in the park. Had it been as smooth a Icon, would be challenging it for the top spot.
5. Revolutuon - Another classic, too short, but that backwards section still gives me the fear!
6. Nickelodeon Streak - AKA the Roller Coaster, a good old fashioned ride, nice.
7, Avalanche - A dull coaster really, nice and fast, but not much to it.
8. Steeplechase - Decent, classic ride. Not fast enough for me, but still ok.
9. Blur Flyer - Simple, short, for kids really, but still quite fun.
10. The Big One - This used to be my favourite ride, but other than the first drop which is still great, the rest of the ride is the most painful experience I've ever had on a coaster. I'm going back to the Pleasure Beach tomorrow and this is the only coaster I'm not going back on. Iconic, can see it for miles, but awful other than the first drop.
Thanks for sharing!
Great one Shaun. Me and Al are finally getting back up there in June . It’s 3 years since we were there last and long overdue 🎢🙌🏽🧱👍🏽
Have a fantastic time!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide 🎢🙌🏽👌🏼
Honestly the new rides bring shock which is a good thing, obviously they will be smoother and less likely to slam you into the sides. But I have to say the other rides that do sometimes slam you into the sides are probably the best at Blackpool mainly because of the memories and the fun too be honest but I completely agree with your choices, I’m going soon on Friday the 11th for my birthday
From looks revolution in blackpool probably has backwards ejector like diamond back at frontier city, another arrow shuttle loop here in the US. Amazing vid.
Iv booked here for my first visit in November I so can’t wait 🤗
Shawn, I’d be really intrigued to know; as well as park rankings, have you ever considered doing rankings of different ride types? For example, your ranking of the RMCs, or your ranking of the B&M hyper coasters? I’d imagine that you’ve probably done quite a significant proportion of most of the major ride types now, so I’d be really intrigued to hear your opinion on some of them!
Thanks for your suggestion
Nice list
Shame that Infusion couldn't challenge nemesis. Not that I'm complaining though, Nemesis is my favourite coaster in the UK, and I don't want that to change, such a brilliant ride. 👍
1. Icon
2.big one
3.big dipper
4.revolution
5.infusion
6.avalanche
7.streak
8.blue flyer
9.steeple chase
10.grand national (would be higher when they retrack)
I couldn't agree more about Icon and Infusion. I went to a Blackpool Pleasure Beach for the first time recently and absolutely hated Infusion and absolutely loved Icon. Icon is one of the best rollercoasters in the country, in my opinion.
i really love infusion. it gives me so much adrenaline 😂. Nice list btw i agree on nearly all of them
Come on we all new infusion would be last and icon would be first 😂
Streak is my favourite wooden coaster at the park, it's the smoothest, the seats are super comfy and even though it's slower than Nash and Big Dipper it feels the fastest! I also rank Infusion much higher, the only part I find really uncomfortable is the double heartline at the end, I actually prefer it to the Big One because it's more thrilling and forceful, and you're able to brace yourself against the roughness somewhat whereas getting jolted up and smashing your thighs into the solid lap bars is inevitable on the big one. Icon of course remains in first, my top coaster in the UK actually
My list
10) steeple chase
9) blue flyer
8) Pepsi max (only 14 its too high for me rn)
7) infusion
6)nikolodan streak
5) avalanche
4)grand nationals
3) revolution
2) the Big one (or big one dipper I forgot)
1) icon
I like some roller coasters located in Blackpool Pleasure Beach, not all of them due to their roughness, but anyways, congrats for reaching 250K Subscribers Shaun! 🎉🎊🍻🥳
Thank you for your support!
Icon is engineering at its finest! Thing looks incredible
Icon is the best ride there .. I’ve been on it 15 times and I’m obsessed
10.Infusion (So painful 😫)
9.Blue flyer
8.Revolution
7.Steeplechase
6.Big dipper
5.Avalache
4.Grand national
3.Streak
2.The big one
1.ICON (Favourite coaster in the uk) ❤
revolution at 8?
Icon may be my favourite coaster, but Wallace And Gromit is my favourite ride in the park. Can’t wait to get back though.
Going Blackpool pleasure beach tomorrow with my dad and will be the first time going on the big one
Blue Flyer will ALWAYS be Zipper Dipper to me - I used to go on it so many times in a row when I was a kid and I still adore it
Such a great ride!
I knew Icon was going to be #1 for you! I'd love to ride the Steeple Chase, those things are so cool looking and rare.
Rare - it's actually the last one in the world.
i warn you it's probably the scariest ride ive experienced
@@HB-vy5mr What Icon or Steeple Chase?
Agree with you on Infusion and Icon .Big one my no.2 at the park
I agree about Revolution,that ride has a kick,I,ve ridden rollercoasters all over the USA ,200 ft,300 ft 400 ft ones but none of them offer that stomach feeling that you get on Revolution and its only a 50 ft drop,like if you are in very back the first drop is the fastest bit and when you get pushed through the loop when going back wards.I find the most exciting ride there.I use to ride it all the time.
Great video
Awesome 😊
My list is a slightly odd one, it goes like this:
1.) Icon
2.) Big One
3.) Infusion (probably the most controversial take on this list)
4.) Revolution
5.) Nick Streak
6.) Avalanche
7.) Big Dipper
8.) Grand National
9.) Blue Flyer
10.) Steeplechase
Awesome video
My top 3 is Big 1, Infusion and icon in 1st. I don't think vekoma slcs are too bad. Watching this while I'm doing home schooling, you are really getting me through by making your vids.
I would be interested as to where you would have rated the "Wild Mouse" - if it was still standing. 2nd place for me behind The Big One. I loved and still miss that ride. Now that was iconic!
Tracy Kingston 3 place for me behind Big one and Icon
You should rank the B&M dive coasters you've ridden. One of the coaster types I never usually see people rank.
The headache I had after riding infusion a few times in the one day was horrific
Good video great work
Thanks for watching!
Love this video could you do it for Oakwood and Thorpe Park please 😁
More ranking videos on the way!
He did a ranking on Thorpe Park coasters
I agree on your list, went there in the summer of 2019. Infusion really needs the new Vekoma trains
It does indeed
congrats on 250k!
Thank you!
Firstly I'd like to say i'm really enjoying your output of late Shawn. I would place Nick Streak higher than the Grand National. I used to love the National back in the day but in recent years it's become uncomfortably rough whereas the Streak is still kind of smooth for an old woodie IMO.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Now I’ve ridden Icon I can understand all the hype. It’s a truly amazing coaster. I would put it in my top three coasters. It’s really that good. I was blown away by it. It exceeded all my expectations!!!
It’s such a fantastic ride
You should do ranking b&m inverted. Great video as always
I would love to see that
Here's how I feel about the mobius loop situation creditwise: If I have to queue twice for both sides, it's two credits, like any racing coaster. If I queue once, it's one. So Twisted Colossus: one credit. Grand National: two credits.
I get where your coming from with infusion I did it as one of my first rides of the day once smacked my head that many times I was sick and couldn’t do anything after but over the past 2 years the rides have been good and I haven’t actually banged my head that much
Absolutely bricking it for big one it bloody scares me😂😂
Love icon,infusion and big one all intense love them
